#6683: KDL when unplugging a mounted USB flash stick ----------------------------+----------------------------------------------- Reporter: x-ist | Owner: axeld Type: bug | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: R1 Component: System/Kernel | Version: R1/Development Resolution: | Keywords: Blocked By: | Has a Patch: 0 Platform: All | Blocking: ----------------------------+----------------------------------------------- Comment (by tangobravo): I think somewhere (perhaps it was some Linux distro) I've seen a prompt asking for the stick to be replaced so that writing can be finished. That's a neat solution if it's possible without too much work. Also it's probably worth forcing somewhat regular flushes for removable media. Windows XP offers some option about how much caching to use that is by default set to the option to flush writes instantly IIRC, even though it probably has a transfer speed penalty. -- Ticket URL: <http://dev.haiku-os.org/ticket/6683#comment:8> Haiku <http://dev.haiku-os.org> Haiku - the operating system.
